ACTIVITIES
In art class this year, the elements and
principles of art are incorporated in
the projects the students work on. They
will use a variety of materials in class
while completing projects in different
art media. Often these projects will
include a reference to art history when
appropriate.
Art Enrichment is a select group of
students who meet during activity period
to expand their art experience with
various projects including stagecraft
for our musical production. This year we
will be painting new historic street
signs for the town of Hamburg.
STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES
Students are responsible for following
the art room rules and procedures.
They are expected to make use of and
care for the art materials and supplies
in an appropriate manner.
Students attend art class one period a
week and should make good use of class
time and finish projects in a timely
manner.
Students in grades six through eight
will meet once a week for one marking
period. Any student who falls behind in
their art work may use the activity
period to catch up, Monday through
Friday.
ASSESSMENT
Grading for students in pre-school
handicapped through grade three will be
general and a commentary.
Students in grades four through eight
will receive both a number grade and a
commentary.
Student’s grades will be based on end
product, process, use of class time and
workmanship.
HOMEWORK
There is no regularly assigned homework
in art classes. Work is done during
class in the art room. Students in
fourth grade will have a test in the
spring for which they will need to study
at home to assure success.
